Fishing at Mt. Elbert Forebay is fair. Under overcast conditions in the late afternoon, anglers experienced more trout activity on bait. Bait anglers caught rainbow ...more trout and cutthroat trout on either rainbow power bait or worms at the southern part of the reservoir. The sizes of the landed rainbow trout and cutthroat trout ranged from 8 to 14 inches. During the morning, boat anglers landed several 15 inch lake trout near the inlet of the reservoir. Midday water surface temperatures were in the low 60s. Report courtesy of www.kansasangler.com and Zeiner’s Bait and Tackle.
